Simple Egg Salad Sandwich
This easy egg salad sandwich is filled with cilantro, green onions, and garlic. Simple and delicious!

I usually make this egg salad with pickled celery or one with fresh dill, but when I came across this simple egg salad sandwich recipe on Woks of Life with cilantro, scallions, and garlic, I wanted to try it. I loved how simple it was to make, and the pops of freshness from the herbs. My husband and I both thought this egg salad sandwich recipe was tasty, and it pairs nicely with a simple salad and some potato chips.

I always enjoy a good egg salad sandwich and I like your addition of cilantro to this version.
I always make this for the kids when I have little time. It’s also my favorite dish.
